I sympathize totally, Lunatic ! Prayers said ! You are not alone, as here is some more tidbits of what I went through. I got to forewarn you ! My ex dragged on the divorce for almost 2 years. He thought if he delayed it long enough, I would give up, and go back to him, like I had stupidly done before.I opened my mouth, finally, and had plenty of support behind me. They all told me they couldn't help me if I never said anything. They knew what was going on, but I had to ask them for help.
My 1st husband, the ex who undoubtedly was an offspring of the devil, demanded I inventory every single toy my children had. His reasoning was that I might sell them for the money, and he wanted a chance to sell them first !!! FTR, he took a lot of the kids possessions when he finally left the house for good, including their piggy banks, their coin collections, and the savings bonds they got from family and friends from their birthdays, holidays, etc. The savings bonds was their college money. My oldest had enough in bonds to pay for the 1st year in college. He cashed them all, and used the money for himself.
Quoting: tiger1 yeah, not having fun with all this right now. The upset emoji was more for my neck at this time. I am still fighting with SSDI. This is just so stupid to be honest. First, the deny due to not getting paperwork and lost everything in Limbo. Now they denied and I am still awaiting it to be assigned medical review for my appeal for the last 6 weeks. Lawyer does not have an update and said I will need to submit an adult function report again. BUT we have to wait for them to send the papers.
I just want this all to come to a conclusion finally. I am also waiting on OPM(federal retirement) to get me the check that is owed me for my back pay....I know that, if I get this prior to the divorce that I will have to halve it with her, but still. It would be nice to get my 2.5 years of back pay owed. Just like the SSA, OPM takes forever.
The D is annoying and here I am having to do all the work again. She took her jewelry, clothes (except clothes I bought her), the kids clothes, kids electronics and other things. She did leave all her savings bonds here that she bought way back when we first got married. I put those in an envelope and in a box with other stuff that she had left.
I am just depressed right now over it all. Between my body, dealing with the govt entities and now the D it is wearing me down.
She wants to do mediation and my lawyer states that we should probably go that route. I was a fool for not going through it the last time, as we discussed. I honestly thought that God's plan for us was to be married.
Anyhow, sorry for the rambling.
Prayers for you my friend with your roof.
Prayers for everyone else and their pets.
